Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what discussions she has had with the Welsh Government on the forthcoming auction of 2.3GHz and 3.4GHz radio spectrum; and whether those discussions have covered the possibility of introducing a 30 per cent cap on spectrum holdings.

Ofcom is responsible for spectrum allocation, in line with its statutory duties. Ofcom is currently consulting on competition measures for the 2.3/3.4GHz auction. This will ensure that the UK continues to benefit from a competitive mobile market.
